Do not place the oven directly against a wall or under cabinets that may be damaged by heat.

Initial Cleaning

Before first use, wash the air fry rack, wire/broil rack, baking pan, and removable crumb tray in warm, soapy water. Wipe the interior and exterior of the oven with a damp cloth. Ensure all parts are completely dry before plugging in the appliance.

Cooking Functions

Air Fry

For crispy results with less oil, select the "Air Fry" function. Place food on the air fry rack within the baking pan. The fan circulates hot air for even cooking.

Toast

Select "Toast" for bread, bagels, or frozen waffles. Adjust the timer knob to achieve desired toast shade (light to dark).

Broil

The "Broil" function is suitable for browning the top of dishes or cooking thin cuts of meat. Place food on the wire/broil rack in the highest position.

Turbo Convection

The "Turbo Convect" function uses a fan to circulate hot air, providing faster and more even cooking results, similar to a full-size convection oven. This is ideal for roasting meats or baking multiple items.

Care and Cleaning

Daily Cleaning

Always unplug the oven and allow it to cool completely before cleaning. Wipe the interior with a damp cloth and mild detergent. For stubborn stains, use a non-abrasive cleaning pad.

Accessory Cleaning

The air fry rack, wire/broil rack, baking pan, and removable crumb tray are dishwasher-safe for convenient cleaning. For manual cleaning, wash in warm, soapy water and rinse thoroughly.

Removable Crumb Tray

The removable crumb tray slides out from the bottom front of the oven, making it easy to dispose of crumbs and drips. Clean regularly to prevent buildup.

Troubleshooting Guide

Oven Not Heating

• Ensure the power cord is securely plugged into a working electrical outlet.
• Check if the temperature and timer knobs are set correctly for the desired cooking function.
• Verify that the outlet is receiving power by testing it with another appliance.

Uneven Cooking

• Preheat the oven fully before placing food inside.
• Ensure food is arranged in a single layer on the rack for even air circulation, especially when air frying.
• Consider using the "Turbo Convect" function for more uniform heat distribution.
• Rotate the baking pan or rack halfway through cooking.

Excessive Smoke

• Ensure the crumb tray and all accessories are clean and free of food debris or grease buildup.
